Page dedicated to larger outreach ventures to schools and events. No need to include a reflection for simple open houses or bay visits unless they're more than just a short presentation of the team.

On Feb 1, 2017 the team went to St Gabriel Catholic School in Cambridge to talk about energy, solar power, and Midnight Sun.

Members Attended:

Alyssha Schneider

What we learned:

Class was at the end of their energy unit; so we didn't need to talk about it that much
Teaching aids were useful. We were asked not to bring the car due to the cold weather, but it would definitely be beneficial
The presentation didn't start until 15 minutes after the alloted time, since they needed to set the students up in the room
The teacher prepared the class by showing them the end of term video
The students drew us pictures of "car designs". Quite the fun read; can be found in the outreach filing cabinet
Alyssha should talk more

What we did:

Small fair hosted solely by the school for their students. They had many booths set up for games and events
Population was smaller than expected, and we didn't get too many opportunities to talk to people
Most of the time, parents came by with their children to look - asking questions and looking at the car
Car got hit with a basket ball. Ouch
Made a couple of connections with parents and their relatives who work in sponsoring companies on the car. Told them to plug a good word for us.
